Chapter 13 Xue (1)
Ding Zhao asked again, "Is there anyone in the village who gives birth to calves or lambs? Xiangxiang's fragrant fragrance startled Zhang and scared her away. Xiangxiang has been drinking rice soup since she was born. I'll buy it.
Here comes a bowl of milk."
Ding Zhuang's distressed face wrinkled into a pile, "My poor granddaughter has suffered a lot. Your third uncle's ewe just gave birth to a lamb. I went to his house to ask for some goat milk. Oh, if I had known that this day would happen.
, our family will no longer buy bulls but cows.”
Ding Zhao went out with a gift for the third room.
After listening to the conversation between the father and son, Ding Xiang felt like she had hit the jackpot. It was said that boys were valued over girls in ancient times, but this family was not only the opposite, but also treated girls as treasures for special reasons.
Especially Ding Zhao, he knew that he was not his biological daughter.
Ding Xiang felt Ding Zhuang's big hand gently caressing her face. The big hand dangled in front of her eyes, rubbing her face with the back of his hand, not his fingers. Probably the blacksmith's fingers were calloused, so he did it with the back of his hand.
Ding Xiang couldn't help but shout silently, "Grandpa."
The grandparents in the previous life favored sons over daughters and did not like this granddaughter. After the parents divorced, I never saw them again.
Unexpectedly, this life gave her a pair of adoptive parents who loved her, and also gave her a good grandpa who loved her.
After a short while, Ding Zhao came back with a large bowl of goat milk, and Mrs. Zhang took it to the kitchen to cook.
The food has been put on the table. Seeing the roast chicken on the table, the two brothers Ding Lichun swallowed their saliva very clearly.
Ding Zhuang ignored his grandson's greedy look and said, "Feed Xiangxiang before eating. Poor Jian'er, he drank rice soup for so long."
Mrs. Zhang came in with boiled goat's milk, let it cool and then fed the cloves.
The goat's milk smelled bad, but Ding Xiang endured the nausea and drank it. Goat's milk is good for the body. She wants to grow taller and more hydrated. She can't just drink rice soup. She also wants to finish it quickly so that her two little brothers can eat it earlier.
Roast chicken.
After Xiangxiang had eaten and drank enough, she was placed on a large chair with armrests. It was surrounded by quilts on three sides and there was a stool in front of her.
They watched her while eating.
Ding Zhuang was so happy that he tore off a roasted chicken leg for Ding Liren, who had a sweet mouth. Ding Zhao tore off another chicken leg and put it into his father's bowl.
Ding Liren's eyes were filled with laughter as he gnawed on the chicken drumsticks.
Ding Zhuang and his son talked about their respective situations while drinking.
How Ding Zhao healed his arm, earned money at the medical clinic, and also learned the skills of treating boils and carbuncles and preparing pills...
The crops in my hometown have been harvested, how much grain has been left, how much tax has been paid...
Ding Lichun went to a private school in the town at the beginning of this year. After studying for more than half a year, he couldn't write a few big characters. He was often beaten and scolded by his teacher. He was much worse than Ding Zhao at the time. Looking at it again, he really couldn't study. In the future
The only way is to learn blacksmithing from them...
I am more happy to have a granddaughter than a grandson. I will treat you to a guest in the next few days. Not only will I invite the third and third bedrooms in my village, I will also invite all the relatives from the neighboring villages. I will definitely not invite the Ding Xia family, Ding Zhuang and the eldest brother.
The relationship between Ding Li and Ding Li has only eased in the past few years, and he and the Ding Xia family still have nothing to do with each other...
Ding Lichun complained again, "I got into a fight a few months ago and was lame for several days."
Ding Zhao worriedly asked, "Is dad's body damaged? No matter what happens, you should wait until your son comes back."
Ding Zhuang said, "I'm not old yet, why do I have to wait for you to come back to fight? Damn it, those bastards bullied the third son and went to his shop to collect protection money. They didn't put my Ding Hong nose on
In the eyes, I led Liangzi and Shitou to beat them until they couldn't get out of bed for several days. Huh, I thought I was too old to beat them. I didn't even ask, when they were still nursing, I was Gu'an Town.
The number one tyrant."
Ding Xiang smacked her lips. Such a gentle grandfather turned out to be a gang fight and was still the "one tyrant". Ding had a red nose. This nickname was not nice.
Ding Liren, the younger wife, is concerned about his own problems.
"Dad, how much does a pound of roast chicken cost?"
"Twenty-eight cents per pound."
"It's twenty-five cents a pound in town, so it's too expensive for you."
Zhang explained, "I bought Guo's chicken in Baishui Town. His roast chicken is also very famous in the county."
Ding Lichun said, "It doesn't matter whether it's expensive or not, as long as it's delicious. Today's roast chicken is really delicious."
Ding Zhuang hummed, "It's just that you are greedy. The money at home does not come from the strong wind. If you don't have enough food and clothing, you won't be poor forever."
Ding Liren hurriedly expressed his position, "Grandpa and dad have a hard time making money."
Ding Zhuang nodded and put another piece of chicken into the second grandson's bowl.
Ding Lichun puffed up his cheeks in anger.
Ding Xiang is funny. Ding Lichun is a tough guy, and Ding Liren is a little smart bean.
This home is very interesting.
She listened to the gossip, smelled the smell of roast chicken and wine, and fell into a dream.
What she didn't know was that her third grandpa Dingshan brought her third grandma Xie Shi and her little cousin Ding Zhen to see her. Xie Shi hugged her and praised her fiercely.
Ding Zhuang smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Ding Xiang was awakened by a suppressed moan.
You don't need to listen too much to know that Ding Zhao and Zhang are doing it.
After patiently listening to the drama, he continued to listen to the two couples talking about family matters.
Mrs. Zhang asked, "Really you don't want to tell dad clearly about Xiangxiang's life experience?"
Ding Zhao said, "Let's not talk anymore. My father put his thoughts on my mother on Xiangxiang, and he feels much better. We treat Xiangxiang as our daughter, so this is good."
Mrs. Zhang asked again, "Head of the family, what kind of person is my mother-in-law? Is she really an illegitimate daughter?"
When she didn't get an answer from her husband, she quickly said, "Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."
Ever since she married into this family, her father-in-law and her husband only talked about how beautiful and virtuous her mother-in-law was and how much hardship she had endured. They never mentioned her origins, and Ding Zhao had never been to her mother-in-law's family.
She heard some comments from the villagers, saying that Mrs. Xue was as beautiful as a fairy. She was the illegitimate daughter of a rich family and could not survive at home, so she was willing to marry the ugly and poor blacksmith Ding. Some people also said that Mrs. Xue came from the building.
Yes, Ding Zhuang made up this background for the sake of good looks...
Ding Zhao was silent for a long time. Ding Xiang thought he had fallen asleep, so he spoke again.
"My mother was indeed the illegitimate daughter of Xue Pingfu, the richest man in Linshui County at the time, and she worked in the county government. The Xue family lived in Linshui County before, but later moved to the provincial capital. My mother had been living with my grandma in the countryside when she was a child.
, after my grandma died, my grandpa took my mother to the county town and set up a separate courtyard to live outside.
"A year later, my grandfather also fell ill and died. My mother's affairs were found out by her aunt. The old woman came to the door and wanted to sell my mother to a high official as a concubine. My mother was unwilling..."
When Ding Zhuang was eighteen years old, he was still an apprentice in a blacksmith shop. That day his master asked him to deliver kitchen knives to the county town. When he was passing by a lake, he met someone who committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake. Many people gathered on the shore, but no one went into the water to save him.
Ding Zhuang didn't think too much and quickly jumped into the lake to rescue the person.
Unexpectedly, among the people watching the fun at the lake was Xue's aunt.
Maybe the aunt of the Xue family saw that Ding Zhuang was poor and ugly, so she said to Ms.
